Linked images and/or replace image


Recommended Posts

I would love the ability to live link or swap the source of images in Affinity Designer for iPad. I’m currently working on a photo book layout and need to make frequent color edits to the images. I would love the ability for these images to either be live-linked to a file or photo in Apple Photos so that edits automatically update. Changing the source of the photo while keeping size, position, and adjustments would be great as well. 
 

Please consider this as I am using this tool full-time at this point and this feature is integral.

+1 for the need for linked (and managed/updatable) images from iCloud etc.

I’m assuming this functionality will be included with Publisher for iPadOS otherwise having a layout/publishing application that doesn’t support linked/managed and updatable assets is going to be rather underwhelming regardless of whether or not it happens to run on an iPad.

All 3 applications support Linked files on the iPad in V2.

Fantastic. But I don't find a 'replace image' possibility. Can you show it?

It's in the Resource Manager. Tap on the entry for the Placed file, then use the panel settings (burger menu).
